The palace maids shuttled back and forth, placing snacks in front of the tables.

Xu Rongrong lowered his head and peeled the nuts in his hands. Xiao Ling'er was a little puzzled: "Sister, if you eat these now, how can you have the stomach for anything else later?"

Xu Rongrong smiled and said: "Although the dishes after the banquet are delicious, they are mostly meat dishes. By the time they are delivered to us, they are already greasy and soaked together. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat them after just one look."

Xiao Ling'er said with enlightenment: "That's it! Sister knows so much."

She didn't know how many times she had eaten like this in her previous life. After a palace banquet, she returned to the Marquis Mansion and was so sick that she couldn't get out of bed. From then on, she never dared to go to the banquet again.

Just as he was talking, the prince led the princes and princesses into the hall one by one.

The current emperor Wu Yang has a total of seven sons and one daughter. The eldest son Wu Tianyao was canonized as the prince when he was five years old. The following are the second prince Wu Tianchi, the third prince Wu Tianxiao, the fourth prince Wu Tianqi, and the fifth prince Wu Tianhua. Yao, the sixth prince Wu Tianxiao, the seventh prince Wu Tianjun and his twin sister Wu Chan who were only eight years old.

Now, it is the time when the factional struggle between the prince Wu Tianao and the second prince Wu Tianchi is beginning to show up. Although the prince's status is stable, the prince's mother's family does not have much background.The second prince married the eldest daughter of Ning Guogong and gained military power.Now, the second prince's power has taken shape.

Xu Rongrong looked coldly at the princes in front of him who maintained the attitude of brothers and sisters. In the next six years, they would be completely split into five factions.In order to ascend to that supreme position, he stirred up a bloody storm in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The fourth prince, Wu Tianqi, who was the final winner in his previous life, was following the prince step by step, showing no trace of his coldness or indifference.

The bells rang outside Zhengyang Palace, and everyone in the palace stood up to welcome the emperor and empress to their seats.

Emperor Wu Yang had just turned [-], and although the queen was the same age as the emperor, she was well-maintained and could not live with more than thirty people.

The love between emperors and empresses has always been a folk legend. Xu Rongrong also saw the emperor peeling grapes with his hands and feeding the queen in his previous life. But even with such love, the emperor still gave the queen poisoned wine to her only wife three years later after she begged for her death. The child, the deposed prince Wu Tianao.

Knowing the fate of the most distinguished person at the palace banquet six years later, Xu Rongrong suddenly lost interest in the singing and dancing in front of her.

After the banquet started, the palace maids shuttled back and forth, and delicious food was placed on the tables in front of everyone.

Xu Rongrong was a little surprised to find that unlike the previous life, tonight's dishes were all served with small carbon boxes, so even people like the Xu family sitting on the outermost side could have hot dishes.

"Sister Xu, look, the food tonight is not greasy."

As soon as Xiao Ling'er finished speaking, an official stood up in the distance to toast the emperor and empress, thanking the superior for his thoughtfulness.

The emperor drank the wine from the glass with a smile: "No need to thank me, this was Brother Rong's idea. He reminded me that there are many family members at today's Chinese Valentine's Day banquet, and I was afraid that you would get tired of eating cold food, so I arranged the carbon The box will not be too hot and will allow you to enjoy the delicious food.”

Xu Rongrong looked at Mu Rong thoughtfully, how could it be completely different from his previous life?

Everyone praised Weiyuan Hou, and even the prince raised a toast: "Brother Rong is still careful. I, as an elder brother, will learn more from you in the future."

While drinking and drinking, the singing and dancing captivated everyone.

After the banquet was over, the emperor retired to rest, and the special features of the Chinese Valentine's Day banquet officially began.

"Mrs. Wang, this is your concubine. She is really handsome and charming. I wonder which young master you have chosen?" This is the routine between ladies.

"Miss Zhao, the moon is shining brightly tonight. Could you please come with me to admire the moon outside the palace? My father is Zuo Qing of the Ministry of Rites." This is the warm relationship between young people.

Regardless of whether you are a housewife who pays attention to rules or a cardamom girl who is lustful and shy, you can all look at each other freely at today's banquet.

Xu Chaoqian didn't worry about this. After he handed his daughter over to the Xu Liu family, he went to show his courtesy to the Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

"Sister Xu, many people are looking at you." Xiao Ling'er came over and bit her ear.

Xu Rongrong naturally noticed it, but she knew that Xu Liu would never let her have a good marriage.

But she has no intention of doing this. Her only wish tonight is not to make the same mistake again.

Cao Yang, the wife of Governor Cao of Huayang, came to visit her: "Mrs. Xu is so lucky to have raised Miss Xu so pleasantly."

Mrs. Xu Liu stood up and thanked her: "I don't dare to accept Mrs. Yang's praise. The three girls in the family favor my sister's frail body, so I will love her more."

It turns out that I am not in good health. It is a pity that I only have a beautiful skin.Cao Yang's expression did not change, he said a few words and left.

Later, several more ladies came to take advantage of the excitement, but returned disappointed after learning that she was "delicate".

Xu Rongrong raised the corner of her mouth. Xu Liu made it so obvious that she seemed to have prepared a backup plan.

Sure enough, Chang Xinghou's wife Wu Jiang appeared on the stage.

"Oh my, I was just wondering why the lights in the palace are so bright today. It turns out there is a stunning beauty hiding here." She grabbed Xu Rongrong's hand and kept praising her.

Mrs. Xu Liu changed her attitude and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mrs. Jiang. Our Sister Rong is thin-skinned. She should be embarrassed if you do this."

"Oh, I was reckless. I really like this child, but I'm afraid that someone will take it away from me. Rong Rong, don't blame me, right?"

"Look what you said, this child is lucky to be liked by you."

Xu Rongrong calmly took out her hand, knelt down and saluted: "I have met Mrs. Chang Xinghou."

"Oh my! This girl has such a nice voice." Mrs. Chang Xinghou exaggerated, turning around and calling Prince Chang Xinghou over, "Brother Ping, come and give your sister a present."

Wu Ping, the prince of Chang Xinghou, ran over and said to Xu Rongrong, "I have met the Xu family's sister."

Looking at Wu Ping's somewhat vain face, Xu Rongrong sneered: Mrs. Xu Liu is really calculating!

Wu Ping, the prince of the Marquis of Changxing, was only 19 years old now, but he was very lustful and no one in the capital knew about it.

Although he has not married yet, he has countless concubines, including five or six outhouses.

He claimed to be romantic, but the Changxing Hou Mansion was in a state of chaos.

Chang Xinghou's wife Wu Jiang has always wanted to marry her son a stunningly beautiful wife, firstly to reassure him, and secondly to restore some reputation.But how could a daughter from a good family voluntarily marry into such a house?

Although there were marriage proposals from small families, the Wu Jiang family claimed that Marquis Chang Xing was from the clan of the Great Zhou Dynasty. How could he fall in her eyes without the official title?

Now it seems that Xu Rongrong is just right?

Although Xu Chaoqian was only a sixth-rank official, he was still a capital official. After getting married in the future, Chang Xinghou would use his power in the court, and it would not be difficult to find a third-rank job for him.

Wu Jiang made such a plan, but what about Xu Liu?

She certainly knew what Wu Ping was like, so wouldn't it be just right to throw Xu Rongrong in and interact with those concubines and concubines?

In addition, the Changxing Marquis Mansion can be regarded as a clan marquis, and Xu Rongrong's reputation as the wife of the clan's crown prince in her past marriage will be of great benefit to her two daughters when they get married in the future.

As for whether Xu Chaoqian will object?How can it be!

If she can become the in-law of Chang Xinghou, even if she sells Xu Rongrong, Xu Chaoqian will personally collect the money.

Unexpectedly, he escaped Weiyuan Hou Mu Rong, but was targeted by Chang Xing Hou Shizi.

She looked at the man in front of her who was looking at her with fascination, and felt quite a headache.

Who knows the troubles in Changxinghou's house?Mrs. Xiao on the side also felt that this person was inappropriate.

How can she comment on the Xu family's affairs?Xu Rongrong was embarrassed, so she found an excuse to take her daughter out of the palace.

Wu Ping, the prince of Chang Xinghou, bowed his waist and waited for a long time. When he didn't see Xu Rongrong's response, he straightened up and said with a smile: "I think this banquet is noisy and not suitable for a beautiful and noble woman like Xu's sister. I saw the moonlight outside the door is just right. I don't know." Sister, can you please go out with me to admire the moon?"
